Pitch Report

The pitch at Oakland Coliseum is balanced, indicatively providing good performance for batters and bowlers alike. Often the pitch offers up good pace and bounce and is more favorable to fast bowlers, particularly early and in cool conditions around the mornings. Batters will be able to play any shot once settled, but the surface will slow down as play continues; therefore, spinners may become more effective as the game type shifts to day/night. The boundaries are average length and provide an equitable contest between bat and ball.

  • Bowlers: likely assistance for pacers early, whereas spinners will become more effective later.
  • Spinners: Most likely to be effective during the middle and later overs.
  • Field Size: average boundary length for balanced and an equitable contest for batters and bowlers
